Water bill mystery

If you are new to my blog...I live in Houston...well, at least according to the 2010 census. However, I spend most of my time in Del Rio, Texas.

Was making out my monthly check to my MUD (Municipal Utility District) when I noticed that my water consumption was not zero like it is every month.  A little worry some as I have not been home since March.

The first thing that came to mind is my lovely neighbor Miss Town Crier and her equally lovely family.  It would not be the first time that they have had one of their utilities cut off for lack of payment.  I actually do not mind if they used the water but I sure would have liked to have been asked.  She has my phone number...I do not have hers...again for lack of payment.

Last night my mind went into overtime...what if it was not her?  What if I have a leak in the house? Or worst, what if someone broke into my house and is now living there?

Had to remind myself...I have an alarm system and the guy that cuts my yard surely would have noticed as well as the only two decent neighbors I have?  Darn...another mystery!

I'm thinking it is time for a trip home.

Good night.  May you all have Terlingua Dreams.
